Use to be about every month someone would post about their terrible experience with City Furniture. Haven't seen those this year, maybe they have improved or maybe people quit buying there. The consensus is the best furniture around is at Babettes, especially if you want real leather. They have a big store in Leesburg on 441 across from the airport and a smaller store at Brownwood across from Gators Dockside. I made the mistake of buying what I thought was leather from Kane's Furniture in Ocala, they're a Florida chain have been around for 70 years, however their furniture is bonded leather and will wear out in 2 years, I know firsthand.

Here's a couple of threads on your question already with many answers. I found great value at Badcock in the shopping center in Wildwood. I decided I didn't want to pay for real leather and wanted something easy to keep clean, so went with vinyl. Prices are great, and the used stores weren't much cheaper. Here's our living room set five years old from Badcock, I recently took these photos because we just installed wood floors and to had to buy area rugs.
